Summer is over. Ahhh yes I said it. School has started again. Whether you have school aged children or not, it affects you. This week the trip to the local store is going to be a little crazy. Driving to work will take more time because of the flashing lights in the school zones. For you parents, it's time to get out the family organizer to plan everyone's activities.

For our family, we have a new challenge. We have 2 college students in the household. It is taking a lot of coordination to save trips to campus and gas. We are working it out but the conversations have been long and detailed. A chart is involved and talking to one another. Imagine that.

Take your time, get out the dry erase board if necessary. If you are really organized color code it.

Lastly set an alarm on your phone. You will never miss that soccer game.
